I would like to share someone I am very proud of. He is my son, Brady. Brady has found an artistic outlet that I would like to share. He has taken up designing shoes. This first photo is of his first ever pair. They are Star Wars characters.

The next pair is what he calls his "new and improved version" of his original pair.

This next pair are the ones he made for his wife, Kylie. They are Super Mario characters. This is the view from the back.

And this is the front view.

These show his political views. He went to the rally at Boise State when Obama was campaigning for president.

Here are his Wolverine ones. Wolverine is his favorite X-men character.

The next ones are ones he made for one of his good friends. My daughter, Hannah, says they are based on a video game. I will take her word for it, as I am not knowledgeable when it comes to video games.

Who I Am

I am a wife, a mother of 5, grandmother of 4, we are expecting our 5th grandchild in October 2013. We already know that we are having a granddaughter and her name will be Isabel. I am a mother-in-law to a really awesome young woman. I am a mother-in-law to 2 awesome young men. My two youngest are both happy with the loves of their lives right now. I am the mother of children obsessed with tattoos. Four of my five children have multiple tattoos. I am the mother of children that love fire. All five are fascinated by it. My youngest "firehoops". My two youngest children love and participate in Burning Man.
I have rheumatoid arthritis, and I work at not letting it define who I am. I am an animal lover. We currently have a 3-legged pygmy goat, numerous outside cats, 4 dogs as well as 2 inside cats. I am obsessed with many things: crafting blogs, music, quilting, crocheting, tatting, scrapbooking, taking photos, Facebook, Pinterest, the Green Bay Packers, NASCAR, the Utah Jazz, the New York Yankees, collecting vintage Christmas ornamnets, collecting vintage pyrex dishes, yard sales, thrifting, and riding our new motorcycle!
